Rainy days and Mondays

That's from a song by a 1970's group called "The Carpenters" -- a classic of pop music!

Journal for tomorrow (for 9/10's):

Write your heritage story.  It can be dramatic or comedic, but it should provide the basis for an exciting performance.  Try to provide detail -- that makes your story more compelling.  The most important part of a story is the intro -- that's what hooks your reader (or viewer) and makes them care about the characters.  Tell as much as you can about the protagonist of your story.  Talk to your family about this project -- you might learn some things about your background that you didn't know before!

Theatre Production:

What have you discussed so far about the "scary place" project?  What are you thinking of doing?

Remember!  We are going to see Mr. Trovato's presentation on Monday -- think of some questions you could ask him about his party's policies or about the election in general.  Talk about the election with your parents.  What issues are important to them?  What do they think about the ideas put forward by the different people running for office?  Have they decided for whom they will vote?  We had a good discussion this morning --  I was very impressed by your comments and your questions -- you are all thoughtful and concerned citizens.  What other issues besides the legalization of marijuana are you interested in?

Theatre sports tomorrow!  Read the newspaper to prepare!
